Pros

- Opportunity to see low key work on major topic -Swedish approach on work, respect of the quality of life - Friendly staff to help you

Cons

- quality of the internship depends on who will be your supervisor (although the research coordinator is helping and guiding you as much as he can in order to provide a good experience, he goes beyond and that is really nice if we consider that the experience and what we learn is our salary as the internship is unpaid)

Pros

On the bright side, there is free fika every thursday, if you like frozen kladdkaka that is. Working from home is a plus.

Cons

To be honest, I wouldnt recommend this place for an internship, unless you are desperate. There is too little meaningful work, you will just get empty assignments that has nothing to do with your field of interest (like instagram updates), which is probably international relations if youre visiting this page. There are way too many interns, more interns than there are employees. The location isnt good either, its far and the office itself is run-down. If you get the chance to write some paper, dont expect it to be published, expect it to be micromanaged instead and it being called a "learning experience". There are no working opportunities here. In short, too little meaningful work, too many interns.
